IV RIDING THE VEHICLE
before you start to climb. Try to keep a steady speed and go easy on the throttle
to avoid acceleration. Abrupt slope or terrain variation or rolling one wheel over
an obstacle could have a big impact on the stability as it will lift the front of the
vehicle increasing the risk of tipping over. Some hills are too steep to safely stop or
recover from after an unsuccessful climbing attempt. Try to avoid steep inclines.
If you're not careful, you could tip over when going up hills. If the hill is too steep
and you cannot proceed or the vehicle begins to roll backwards, apply the brake,
being careful not to slide. Dismount then use the "K" turn (while walking back,
next to the vehicle on the up hill side and with a hand on the brake lever, slowly
back the rear of the vehicle toward the top of the hill then drive downhill). Always
walk or dismount on the upside of the slope while keeping clear of the vehicle and
its rotating wheels. Do not try to hold on to the vehicle if it begins to topple. Stay
clear. Do not ride over the crest of the hill at high speed. Obstacles, including
sharp drop-offs, may exist.

The passenger must synchronize his movements with the operator. The passen-
ger must remain seated at all times.
Do not forget, the operator is responsible for the safety of the passenger. In doubt,
disembark the passenger before climbing a hill.
Before trying to climb a hill, keep these things in mind. Hill Climbing should only
be attempted by experienced operators. Start on shallow slopes. Always drive
straight uphill. Operator and passenger must keep their body weight forward,
towards the top of the hill. Keep feet on the footrests, shift the ATV into a lower
gear and accelerate before you start to climb. Try to keep a steady speed and
